*project 67 sub* · 01-28-2009, 08:24 PM

i seen that at pamona car swap meet

1Bad62Pro/Street · 02-07-2009, 08:38 PM

Update:
Just more cleaning! Cleaning up the frame and doing a little undercoating.
Cleaned up the wheels, and rubbed Gojo Pumice Hand Cleaner on her.
If ya put Gojo on aluminum wheels it will help keep them from oxidising.
Me and pops do this when our vechicles are being stored or sitting for a long time.
Started cleaning a little under the hood as well!
I have alot more photos to post pre-pro/street, and during the morf.
Stay tuned!

1Bad62Pro/Street · 02-21-2009, 11:50 PM

Just some pics of my truck pre-prostreet.

1Bad62Pro/Street · 02-22-2009, 12:44 AM

Just some pics of my truck pre-pro/street. I looked all over the place and I could not find anymore. I guess I lost them. The truck was red and white when I first got it in 1994. From the factory I found that it was forrest green and white. She will remain Yellow.

1Bad62Pro/Street · 02-27-2009, 11:07 PM

Just a sound clip of my ole 62. The engine needs a minor rebuild. Well maybe I will stroke her. The way the economy is looking I will just keep the motor I have in her. Click the link below:

Where were you in '62?

Dudewith4x4 · 01-04-2010, 12:22 AM

Well Bud,

I have been thinking alot about building big inch small block.

The quest for big cubes doesn`t have to lead to a big block anymore.
Now you can add cubic inches to your current engine without having to swap intakes, headers, engine mounts & other accessories.
By building a big cube small block you can have all the additional torque & horse-power of a big block without all the extra weight, expense & effort.

I have not completely decided on what I am going to do yet.

Thanks,

**scotts62** · 01-09-2010, 08:32 PM

Yeah a good built small block will out run a big block and the price of building a BB any day. A friend of mine had a 409 in his 76 monza and ate BB's lunch all day long at the track

I used to work for an automotive machine shop i dont know it all but do know of some tricks

1Bad62Pro/Street · 01-13-2010, 08:23 PM

I always wanted a 427.....
So a 427 cubic-inch small block would be nice.
Been reading in my book.....

I looked at your build thread and think you would be able to make your bed tilt.
If you make a frame that attaches to the bottom of your bed and lays over the original truck frame it would work. You may have to raise your bed floor up for clearance but I think you could make it work.
I'm raising my bed floor up because my truck won't haul anything but a$$.
You want the pivot to be as low as possible to keep the front of the bed from getting into the back of the cab.

Thanks Bud,

My dad keeps telling me I need to leave the engine alone.
If I want a Mild/Wild engine just get another one and build it or buy a crate.
The Engine I have now is a great street engine built for longevity and nostalgia.
I do love 427 Big blocks....
Large Bore with Short Stokes!!!!!

But finding one cheap and not wore slap out or raced is rare.

all you need is a 454 block and 396 crank
with some different pistons
